Physicians can often treat heart diseases (chronic or acute heart failure) affecting the liver and liver diseases affecting the heart. Systemic diseases can also affect both heart and liver. This review aimed to summarize principal finding on fatty liver as risk marker for heart failure or liver fibrosis as score to predict outcome in heart failure and, above all, rare systemic diseases affecting heart and liver. Principal evidence from human and animal models is reported, in order to better understand the extremely complex relationship between heart and liver.
